(This installation guide is not intended for use with any PeopleFinder CD-ROM other than PeopleFinder

West-California OR PeopleFinder West-Oregon and Washington OR PeopleFinder West Arizona-

Colorado-New Mexico-Nevada-Utah). To obtain installation instructions for other PeopleFinder CD-ROM

products, please switch to the "How To Install" WEB page. )

 

 

TO INSTALL THE PEOPLEFINDER WEST CD-ROMs:

 

First, determine the drive letter for your CD-ROM drive, and the drive letter for the hard drive on which

you will be installing the PeopleFinder software. You will need this information when you first run the

PeopleFinder "INSTALL" program. (Note: you will need approximately ten (10) Megabytes of free space

on the selected hard drive.)

 

Next, run the "INSTALL" program contained in every PeopleFinder CD-ROM. The easiest way to

activate this program is by temporarily quitting Windows and going to your computer's DOS prompt.

(Under Windows 3.x you should go to your "Main" folder, and click on "MS-DOS ". Under

Windows 95, use your "Start" button to navigate directly to "MS-DOS".) If you are unfamiliar with

this procedure, please consult your Windows' manual.

 

To run the PeopleFinder "INSTALL" program once you are at a DOS prompt, first switch to the letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive's prompt. (The following example would apply if your hard drive was

labeled "D" and your CD-ROM drive was labeled "F".)

 

 

Then, at your CD-ROM drive's DOS prompt, type "INSTALL" (as shown in the following example).

 

 

The "INSTALL" program will first ask you to identify the letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive, and will then ask you to identify the letter assigned to your hard drive.

 

Once you have provided that information, the PeopleFinder software will automatically be installed on the

hard drive that you selected, and a directory will also be created on your hard drive to hold the PeopleFinder software. Although you can name the directory anything you wish, it is recommended that you keep the default directory names (ie. "PFWESTCA" for PeopleFinder West - California).

 

During the installation process, the "INSTALL" program will keep you notified of its progress.

Installation typically will not take more than 60 seconds.

 

After the installation process has been completed, you will see a message screen appear, confirming

that installation has been successful.

 

After successfully installing either PeopleFinder West on your computer, you will

need to obtain a special "Activation Key" which will allow you to unlock and use

your software.

 

To obtain your unique "Activation Key", you must first run the software that you have

just installed from the computer on which you intend to run the CD-ROM.

 

To run the PeopleFinder software, first switch (back) to the drive into which the software

was installed...

 

...then transfer to the directory into which the software was installed (the below example

may not apply)...

 

 

...and type the appropriate program name (the below example may not apply)...

 

 

The first time that you start the PeopleFinder West software, and attempt to process

a "search", you will see a screen providing you with a "SITE CODE" and asking you

to enter an "AUTHORIZATION KEY". (See example below.)

 

 

 

You must now obtain an "Authorization Key" with which to unlock your copy of

PeopleFinder West.

 

Your "AUTHORIZATION KEY" will be unique, and will work only with the one

computer which has generated the "Site Code".

 

To obtain your "Authorization Key", please fax (to 1-212-858-5720) or email the

following information to Pallorium, Inc. :

• NAME
• COMPLETE ADDRESS
• TELEPHONE NUMBER
• EMAIL ADDRESS
• PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
• YOUR POINT OF PURCHASE.

 

While waiting for your "Authorization Key" you may quit out of the PeopleFinder

software, or may leave it running. Your "Site Code" will not change.

 

After you have obtained your "Authorization Key", simply enter that "Authorization

Key" into the appropriate location in the "Unlock Program" dialog box (as shown in

the below example).

 

 

 

If you have successfully "unlocked" your PeopleFinder disc, you will see the

following message.

 

 

Finally, to run the PeopleFinder software, again switch to the directory into which the software

was installed (the below example may not apply)...

 

 

...and type the appropriate program name (the below example may not apply)...

 

 

If you are running Windows 3.x or Windows 95, it is recommended that you create an icon or a shortcut

for each PeopleFinder program, so that it can be run from the desktop. Consult your Windows manual if you are unfamiliar with this procedure.

 

As your PeopleFinder has not been programmed with any "meter" or expiration date, usage is unlimited.

 

We recommend that you register your purchase as soon as possible, so that you can

receive notification of upgrades and discounts available only to registered PeopleFinder

purchasers. You can register right now, or by telephone or fax.

 

Again, thank you for your purchase, and good hunting!
